Day pass to Overground Basel – the largest trend sports hall in Europe

Ninja

• Ninja Warrior is a top-level obstacle course that combines skill, strength and endurance
• The concept originates from the long-running Japanese programme Sasuke and enjoyed great success on television in the USA as Ninja Warrior
• In 11 seasons, only 2 athletes have managed to win the prize money of 1 million dollars
• This testifies to the high level of difficulty of the obstacle courses, which become more challenging from year to year
• Many countries have now bought the licence for the TV show, including Germany, France and Switzerland
• The show consists of 4 rounds: A preliminary round with 6 different obstacles, a semi-final qualifying round with 5 obstacles, the semi-final with 9 obstacles and the final
• In the final show, the athletes face 4 different courses (also known as stages)
• In the first they have to overcome 9 obstacles, in the second 5 and in the third 4
• The 4th stage consists of a 20 metre long rope, Mount Midoriama, which has to be climbed in 30 seconds

Trampoline

• A long airtime, i.e. time in the air, helps when practising tricks
• This time allows you to concentrate on the movements of the somersaults and twists
• Practising with professional trampolines is perfect for long airtime
• Big Bounce is a TV show from RTL
  • The participants complete a course with all kinds of obstacles connected to trampolines in the shortest possible time
  • This requires and promotes coordination and balance
  • The time pressure spurs them on and gives the whole thing an agonal component

Chase Tag

• Chase Tag is a game of tag for grown-ups
• Poles and walls are placed as obstacles on a 12 x 12 metre playing field
• The game is played in teams of 5 people; however, only 2 people per chase' face each other on the field
• The catcher tries to catch the hunted (evader) for 20 seconds
• If the evader manages to escape, his team receives one point
• The winner of the round (chaser or evader) remains in the field and gets a new opponent
• The 1st team with 16 points wins

Parkour

• Le Parkour was invented by the Frenchman David Belle
• He developed it from the «méthode naturelle», a method that is still used today as training for the French military and is similar to the Vita Parcours in this country
• Parkour is a form of locomotion in mostly urban spaces
• Architectural and spatial elements such as walls, railings, walls, steps, subways, poles or kerbstones are assigned completely new meanings
• The traceur chooses the most efficient and direct route possible through the obstacles of a city
• Railings are overcome effortlessly, walls are overrun in seconds and subway steps are jumped over
• The young sport has evolved over the last 15 years
• While efficiency and speed took centre stage in the beginning («the fastest way from A to B»), today it is more about creatively engaging with the (urban) environment
• Saltos and artistic spins have also been added
• Today, it's about finding your own way and having a lot of fun doing sporting activities in the process
• Strength, agility, balance, precision and endurance, a precise perception of your own body and its abilities, creative interaction with a mostly urban environment and constantly overcoming boundaries: That's parkour!
